Senior VP of Exploration Warren Bates commented, “We have now extended the strike of the Pokukrom East gold zone to 850 metres as we step out on 100-metre sections. Additionally SPDD-152 and SPDD-153, which were drilled as depth-extension holes at Pokukrom East, represent two of the most broadly mineralized drill holes that we have yet encountered at Manfo, with both intersecting the target mineralization as well as new, near-surface hanging wall zones. We have also encountered a new Nfante Central zone 250 metres east of the Nfante West zone. We expect the strike extension and new zones announced today to enhance the project’s resource potential as we move towards an initial estimate over the coming year.”
